Me Time Society Hosts a HUGG in a Mug Event to Raise Vital Funds for HUGG

On February 23rd 2025, Rachel from Me Time Society is hosting a special HUGG in a Mug event in Portmarnock to raise funds for HUGG.

Rachel shared her heartfelt reasons for supporting HUGG:

Why I Am Hosting a HUGG in a Mug moment to support those bereaved by suicide

“On February 23rd, we are hosting a special event, a morning of yoga and connection. We have multiple facilitators coming together for one purpose: to support HUGG.

Last year I helped host multiple events with fellow facilitators which raised money for HUGG. It is my pleasure to host again this year.

This cause is deeply personal to me as I enjoy supporting those who need to be heard.

Grief, especially after suicide, is unlike any other. It carries layers of pain, questions without answers, and a deep sense of isolation.

HUGG offers something invaluable: a safe space where people don’t have to grieve alone. They provide understanding, connection, and a reminder that healing, even if slow, is possible. Their work resonates with me because I believe in the power of community and shared experience and how, in the presence of others who truly understand, we can begin to piece ourselves back together.

That’s why I wanted to do my best and play my part! To create an event that embodies what HUGG stands for—healing, connection, and support. Through yoga, connection circle and shared space, we will honor those we have lost while nurturing those who are still here. This gathering isn’t just about fundraising; it’s about creating a moment where people can feel held, supported, and reminded that we are not alone.

We hope that the sun shines on the 23rd in Portmarnock so we can celebrate with nature.”

Rachel’s event is part of our HUGG in a Mug campaign, which encourages people to come together in support of those bereaved by suicide. Every event, big or small, helps ensure that no one has to navigate this journey alone.
